The Priestess Of Rodona - Chapter 83 Chapter 83
“So city Lord what are you going to do for that family who humiliated me in public.
I was just going to eat peacefully when they suddenly attacked me to humiliate me; it was clearly a targeted attack against me. I even brought witnesses who can witness against them.” The same young master from the restaurant was now complaining at the city Lord who was having a massive headache now.
He clearly knew this person’s intention and what he did actually do at the restaurant as the guards already had reported at him about what happened there, but he came here to complain and wanting justice.
His witness was even his gang of people that he gathered and paid with money to witness against the low-income family that was no involved in this.
“Young master Damien cannot you just let this be and forget what happened as they didn’t mean it.
So why are you making this incident more bigger than it really is?” The city Lord asked from the young master, and one of his ruffians suddenly shouted out.
“What do you mean, it was clearly an attempted murder against our young master.
He was so kind and thoughtful that he went to the restaurant to buy food for the poor, but then they viciously attacked against him and even did kill one of his guards that were defending our young master.” The ruffian finished and pointed at the person, and If Jaana, Levin, or Elvire had been here, they would have recognized him as the person who came to their table to start trouble.
But now he had his neck sliced open, and he was even in a worse condition than before.
“So what do you mean by saying this is only a small matter what if your brightest young masters father would hear that his son was almost assassinated, and the city Lord was defending and even letting the assassin’s run away?” The ruffian clearly hit a sour spot of the city Lord, and Damien was clearly pleased by the person’s actions and was smiling at him while adding to the story.
“Yes, I was only thinking of feeding the poor around the city and give free food away while doing some business here just to be mercilessly attacked, and the city guard didn’t arrest them or help me, so was this your intention all along city Lord?
I might even start to suspect that as now you are saying that I should just forget this traumatic experience that happened, so what do you have to say to defend yourself?”
The city Lord could only massage at his head while thinking of how big of a problem this was now; if Damien’s father heard about this, he would start a war immediately or have his head, and he wouldn’t even have a chance of winning.
He’s king would even sacrifice him immediately if that would mean that the war would be avoided so he could only say.
“Guards gather the reports from Damien and his group and arrest everyone who looks even a little bit like them and bring them here under the justice.”
He could only pray that the family was intelligent enough to leave the city immediately and that his guards wouldn’t find the right ones.
“See city Lord it wasn’t that hard when my father hears about your actions you can be sure that the business will be blooming after that and there will be more cargo and precious items amongst them as a thank you for saving my life.
Men let’s help the poor city guard, and let’s separate and have one person in each patrol to help them out in the identification.” Damien said and just flashed a smile at the city lord.
“No need no need; we just need the information, and we can do this ourselves as you are still in my city.” The city Lord said while massaging his head more.
“But we cannot burden the city guard much, so would it better that we make our patrols then I can agree to that if you let us have the power to arrests them then?” Damien flashed another venomous smile at the city Lord who had the worst headache in his life now.
In the end, he could only agree to let Damien’s men to patrol with his guard’s and hope the best as he didn’t want to judge innocent people.
He even cursed his last self, who thought he was lucky to be a city Lord, but now he was just regretting it.
“You did the right thing to be proud of yourself,” Damien said to the city Lord while ordering his men to go with the guards.
“Here the most exquisite wine I have now with you take it as a thank you gift from me.
I will be waiting at the golden turtle in for the good news don’t let me down.” Damien said before leaving the city Lord’s office while leaving the bottle of wine behind.
